Problem Pappy

When Popeye checks in on his pappy, who sleeps in a rowboat as a bed, he discovers that he's gone off somewhere. Popeye sets out to find his wayward father, who does all kinds of crazy things like staying out all night long. Pappy wants to be left alone. "His second childhood is making an old man out o' me," grumbles Popeye. After searching all over town, he discovers his pappy has taken a job as a flagpole sitter on a skyscraper. Naturally, Popeye tries to get the recalcitrant Pappy to come down, but the stubborn old coot keeps sabotaging Popeye's efforts. Pappy's bravado soon turns to panic when an electrical storm starts hitting the flagpole, and Popeye must come to the rescue. This time, his use of spinach gives him the strength to battle the lightning bolts as they come at him.

There's no Bluto, no Wimpy and no Olive in this cartoon... Only some fun sight gags and Pappy being a pest!
